      We could live on Mars if we had good enough technology to build ourselves a habitat that protected us from the heat and cold, and kept the air and water that we need around us. We’d also have to get there which could be quite a challenge! There is lots of scientific research going on investigating different ways that we could get to Mars, what we’d do once we were there but it will probably be a long time before we come up with something that works well enough to send people.

      Some scientists are searching for other Earth like planets in the universe. But so far, we haven’t found one which can support life!
